Seems like all we need is a search engine that only returns sites that don't shove unwanted content down your throat. Tall order though.
I've started using Duckduckgo, less specifically for the search and more for the bangs. Fed up of search surfacing sites they care about. I can now quickly search wikipedia with !w etc.
Not advocating for Google here, but you can do that with "site: wikipedia.org" as a search operator in Google.
DDG's bangs actually use the site's own search feature though, rather than narrowing the search engine's results to a given site.
And, less typing. That's a plus for me.
Yeah but that's slower and not using the sites specific search
